Cartoons by ROBSMy Friend: The Tree

With the exhibition My Friend: The Tree, the European Cartoon Center pays tribute to the Polish cartoonist Robert Szecówka – ROBS (1935–2020).
In this selection of cartoons, the tree takes center stage—not as a backdrop, but as a friend, a silent witness to the way people behave: funny, strange, and touching.
My Friend: The Tree is an invitation to look, to smile, and to listen to what ROBS has to share with us through his simple line and gentle humor.
